Part of #101615

Moves ComClassInfo to its own file and moves the Func that produces them in the ComClassGenerator pipeline to a static method on ComClassInfo.

Makes the constructors for ComClassInfo, ComInterfaceContext, ComInterfaceInfo, and `ComMethoInfo private to enforce that they are only created from the static creation methods.

Creates more static SpecialTypeInfo types for sbyte, uint, short, and ushort.

Changes pattern matching on records to use property pattern matching rather than the deconstruction notation for records. Since the constructors are not accessible, neither are the deconstruct methods.

Personally, I do prefer using records here as the constraints around record usage (and the with expressions) make it obvious that state isn't mutable by default.

I also see changing to manual equality as a bug farm. We introduced a few bugs in LibraryImport when we had a few custom equality implementations because we forgot to update them.

I think if we want to limit the constructor scope, we can manually define the record properties and define the more-scoped constructor in the body of the record, and just not use the "primary constructor" feature of records (while still getting the rest of the features of records).
